The new limited-edition Xbox Series X consoles are a big hit with fans, but many people are frustrated because they can’t buy them in the usual way.
These special consoles, like the Halo-themed Xbox 360 I had as a kid and the Pokemon Nintendo 2DS I still own, are popular among collectors.

Microsoft has created a ton of different limited-edition versions of the Xbox Series X, but the problem is you can’t buy most of them.
For example, the X-Men ‘97 version celebrates the success of the show on Disney+ and features a cool comic-panel design and controllers with colors inspired by popular heroes from the show.
Fans love these designs and want to add them to their collections, but they’re only available to win in sweepstakes, which has left many people feeling frustrated.
People have been tweeting Xbox asking why they don’t just sell these awesome consoles instead of making them prizes in contests.
Unfortunately, there haven’t been clear answers. However, the controllers from the X-Men ‘97 version are available through the Xbox Design Lab, where you can design and buy them yourself, but you’ll have to pay for them that way.
